GeoBases: data services and visualization, version 5

[geobases.dev at gmail.com]

Hello! 

We just released the version 5 (rc) of GeoBases! 

For those who do not know GeoBases, this project provides tools to play with geographical data. It also works with non-geographical data, except for map visualizations :). 

There are embedded data sources in the project, but you can easily play with your own data in addition to the available ones. After data loading, you can: 

 - perform various types of queries (find this key, or find keys with this property) 
 - make fuzzy searches based on string distance (find things roughly named like this) 
 - make phonetic searches (find things sounding like this) 
 - make geographical searches (find things next to this place) 
 - get results on a map, or on a graph, or export it as csv data, or as a Python object 

A few highlights of this new version (more details on https://github.com/opentraveldata/geobases/wiki/News): 
 - join clauses (tutorial https://github.com/opentraveldata/geobases/wiki/Join-clauses-tutorial)
 - admin mode (tutorial https://github.com/opentraveldata/geobases/wiki/Admin-mode-tutorial) 
 - learning mode 
 - sub-indexes 
 - phonetic search 
 - graph display 
 - better zsh autocomplete 

We tried to improve the documentation with:
 - a wiki containing quickstart and tutorials
 - a Twitter account to answer questions
 - the API documentation on readthedocs.
